Fahredin Shehu - One Poem

The Zircon Goblet

Flame was the name of my obsession
Flame, the blue,
Flame of love

Flame became purple of my compassion
Flame the green
Flame of spirit

Flame was sparkling, my impression
Flame of eternity
Flame transparent glow

The goblet became full
The blood turned life

The Calla was my move
The Lilly of heaven

The mist unfurled heavy
The dust turned cloud

The jewel remained beneath is precious
The soul you keep turned LOVE

We. Drink. In. Tribute. I. Die. Surely. But. Slowly.
We. Feel. In. Unison. She. Embraces. Me. Motherly.
Alas. Tonight. I’m. Drunk. Of. Love.
The. Zircon. Goblet. Outpoured. Blood.
The. One. That. Transforms. In. Life. For. Ages.
The. One. Lives. For A. Day. And. Eternity. More.
